Why is Acoustic Absorption so important?
Acoustic Absorption deals with how noise travels within a space. Imagine it like a tennis ball being thrown in an empty room – it will bounce off the walls, floors and ceiling with no obstruction. In an empty room, noise will behave in the same way, bouncing off surfaces and causing reverberation and echo.
However, when we install ‘obstructions’ in the room, noise will not be able to bounce so efficiently from surface to surface. Instead the noise is absorbed and does not travel any further. This reduces unwanted noise reverberation which can be distracting and uncomfortable in many environments.
The key benefits of Acoustic Absorption are:
- Reduces unwanted background noise
- Clarifies wanted noise such as general speech and presentations
- Improved concentration levels as there are less noise distractions
- Creates a comfortable work atmosphere
What products can help me achieve Acoustic Absorption?
Acoustic Absorption is best achieved through the ‘furnishing’ elements in a room. This can range from wall panels, furniture, suspended canopies and even decorative items such as plant pictures and artwork! This means that Acoustic Absorption can be easily implemented in new builds and retrofit projects. View our products below to find your absorption solutions.

How do we measure the performance of Acoustic Absorption products?
Sound Absorption Coefficient Alpha (αw)
This rating has a value between 0 and 1.00. Zero represents no absorption and 1.00 represents total absorption. Sometimes this value will be presented on a product datasheet simply as its αw value e.g αw = 0.8
However, this value is often referenced against a class value, classifying product performance as a letter from A – E (A being the best absorption). The diagram below shows how these ratings interact with one another:
Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC)
You might also see an NRC value associated with Sound Absorbing products. This is an average rating of how much sound an acoustic product can absorb.
NRC is measured on a scale that ranges from 0 – 1 (zero being no sound absorption and 1 being the maximum absorption).
